I had to look this up, it seemed so improbable that a cat could be named
Catamongus purely by whim.  It may be so, but there is more. Turns out
there was a thoroughbred horse by that name, in New Mexico, I believe,
about 20 years ago.  Ran some races, made a few dollars.  Probably glue
by now.

The cat's name is January.  Editor's wife's personal cat.  He roves.  When
he comes home, he is  "among- us."  When he leaves again,  he  is  "awump-
us."    – Editor

Anthony Dean wrote Mon 12/30/19 @16.17 CST re Dear El-
eanor's suggestion  on  how  to  deal  with obnoxious barking
dogs next door:

I have heard of a device that will sound a loud horn in
response to a dog's bark.  But  if  that  doesn't work,  I
would rather spare the dogs  and  shoot the  neighbors.
Animal Control will take care of the dogs.

What our dear Eleanor said, exactly, was "Shoot the sons of
bitches – with a real gun."  But you might note that  she  did
not say exactly whom to shoot  –  the dogs, or the neighbors
who harbored them.  One might say,  "Well,  she  meant  the
dogs, of course, because only dogs are born of bitches." But,
then,  there's  that  pejorative  slang  we all know.  We're not
sure you and Eleanor disagree. . . .    – Editor
